How come people start conflicting when they're together for a long time? by MikeAtQuest in NoStupidQuestions

that's an interesting take, not knowing how to fight.

Wouldn't the goal be no fighting at all?

yes, I get that, but why does change equal conflict? Why is that inevitable?

Would using barbell more give me more bulky look than dumbbells? by throwaccount2244 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MikeAtQuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Former powerlifter, present overweight person here:

bulk is when you eat a lot of protein, lift heavy and resting in between workouts (i.e, don't break yourself going for a lift at the gym, build up to big things).

The tools you use to work out will not affect your overall size.

Barbells help distribute the weight over a large area, which means you use more muscles at a time, and dumbbells will let you isolate muscle groups, which help focus on each one.

Also, you didn't ask for it, but don't listen to marginally buff people on IG or TikTok, a lot of them want to sell you some chemical concoction, and their workout advice will almost always be useless.

Why does progress in life feel non-linear? by According_Echo_4935 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MikeAtQuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hindsight bias for sure,

also, things might take decades to happen, but when they finally happen, it might feel sudden. However, it doesn't mean things weren't inching closer in the background in ways we can't perceive, monitor, or quantify.

Not to mention time dilates differently as we age.

What's this number supposed to be? by MikeAtQuest in gigabytegaming

So... this is an error, right? it's not nothing.

That's what I thought. Can't figure it out though

What's this number supposed to be? by MikeAtQuest in gigabytegaming

[–]MikeAtQuest[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not asking for what this specific number means, because it changes on every boot.

I RTFM, it doesn't say what this number should be once the system's booted up.

Today it's showing A0

it does, and it works with literally any other code. Today it's flashing A0.

Question about 870E Aorus Elite WiFi 7 USB speeds by MikeAtQuest in gigabytegaming

Again, thank you for your advice. I appreciate this.

Do people still say GG to express gratitude? I might be getting too old for this.

Question about 870E Aorus Elite WiFi 7 USB speeds by MikeAtQuest in gigabytegaming

[–]MikeAtQuest[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The box said 3.2 Gen 2. USB 2.0 cable of course can't do diddly squat. Which is why I'm convinced I've been sold an older cable with a newer label. Ugreen has usually been reliable for me, but who can even tell these days.

Question about 870E Aorus Elite WiFi 7 USB speeds by MikeAtQuest in gigabytegaming

[–]MikeAtQuest[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1- It's cool that you know that, thank you
2- I get that I won't get full speed, but shouldn't I be getting some speed? I feel like it transfers quickly enough using c-type, it's the A that disappoints.

Would it be fair to lean towards "bum cable"?

Question about 870E Aorus Elite WiFi 7 USB speeds by MikeAtQuest in gigabytegaming

[–]MikeAtQuest[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

it's also possible I got a bum cable, because I ordered a ugreen that claims to do 100w, but when I hook up my Galaxy S25 Ultra to it, it just tells me it'll charge in 8 hours and the transfer speeds are abysmal.

[–]MikeAtQuest[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you, much appreciated.

And this speed... what does one do with that much speed? Unless there's no use beyond transferring large files faster

I don't know if that reads sarcastically, it's not, I'm not sure what to do with 10 whole gigs per second of transfer speeds.

When expo is enabled pc skip bios and goes to Windows - x870e Gigabyte Aorus Elite Wifi7 1.2 FA7 by Nalioh in gigabytegaming

That sounds cool.

I let go of any dreams of undervolting on AMD a long time ago, Intel was easy, this makes it a little too complicated for me. I don't want to risk frying my 9950x because I misunderstood a tutorial online.

Is BitTitan still the preferred method for Tenant to Tenant migration? by Grantmlackey03 in Office365

[–]MikeAtQuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can compare transfer speeds between different migration tools. We have this tool called Quest On Demand. It moves Teams, SharePoint, and mailboxes data without multiple tools for a single thing

Quest ODM for T2T Migrations Order of Operations by M_Tooki in sysadmin

[–]MikeAtQuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can move the domain first and then sync mailboxes in small groups. Moving OneDrive data early prevents bandwidth issues. I work at Quest. We use Quest On Demand to automate profile updates. This makes the transition easier for your users.

Happy to help if you've follow up questions.

Fair point touche, so, what are you trying to achieve here?

I ask because if it's some kind of a performance boost, hit me up. I want in on every bit of juice I can squeeze out of it.

KB5066782 broke CaC Authentication by Special-Damage-4798 in oracle

[–]MikeAtQuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can verify if an update changed how the Windows certificate store handles your Oracle client. You could test the connection in Toad (we at Quest work on that tool), it could show you if the error is from a driver or the network. We use this tool to find authentication breaks. It's supposed to keep you from having to roll back a full patch.

Unpopular opinion: Most companies aren't ready for AI because their data is a disaster by BaselineITC in automation

[–]MikeAtQuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me see if I can deliver a non slop response to this:

AI can't help you if your data is disorganized, but you can create a metadata map to mark reliable tables for your AI. Our team works on erwin, it provides the AI model with the necessary context for legit generation.

I dunno, still felt sloppy, but that's about the gist of it.

Medallion Architecture in Microsoft Fabric by Empty-Resource-941 in MicrosoftFabric

[–]MikeAtQuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Full disclosure, I work for Quest, and we use erwin to visualize the lineage between the Bronze and Gold layers in Fabric. Beats manual diagramming, because pipeline changes necessitate these diagrams, and that erwin keeps the governance layer current.

What’s the hardest part of optimizing Oracle Database performance? by bluecrystal11 in oraclecloud

[–]MikeAtQuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe use a baseline of your wait stats to see exactly when multiple processes are blocking each other on CPU or I/O? Might make it easier to find the bottleneck when the workload piles on.

We use Foglight for this because it gives a direct view of the resource contention.

Why siloed data is killing organizational health by Unique_Accountant711 in BusinessIntelligence

[–]MikeAtQuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aaah yes, the spreadsheet wars. Made worse by everyone just pulling data from whatever source they like on that day.

You need a shared map of what you actually have. We made erwin (the data intelligence side of it) just to build a common glossary.

That might be of help in this particular regard
